Mechanical Chucks

When making a decision about the core support system best suited for your application, keep in mind the simplicity of design of these chucks which assures reliable operation and economy.

Unlike the core cones, the chucks are supplied with the same split bushing design used in our COR-LOK® Air Chucks and Shafts, preventing possible damage to the thru shaft.

These chucks do not require any compressed air to operate. They engage and lock the core without tools or any external operation by the machine operator. When your roll starts to rotate, these chucks automatically engage your core and lock it in place.

COR-LOK® mechanical chucks are an excellent answer where heavy duty, high torque core support is required. They work equally well for light duty applicaitons. They are available in aluminum and steel.

Ease of installation provides another reason for choosing this solution to core support problems. Simply slip the chuck onto the thru shaft, clamp split bushing to shaft with the set screws provided, load the core and you're ready to run.

Features and Benefits:
  • Available in 2" to 8" diameter
  • Various body lengths available to accommodate heavier rolls longer cores
  • Self-centering
  • Standard model manufactured in aluminum
  • Heavy duty models manufactured in steel
  • Maintenance free
  • Load sensitive - the greater the load the greater the gripping
  • Backed by CAC's over 30 years of experience designing and manufacturing Mechanical Chucks.
